What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

Step back into Nazareth’s pre-war golden era with the Martin 000-28VS Vintage Series! Built around a 12-fret-to-the-body 000 design, this acoustic pairs a gloss spruce top—backed by scalloped X-bracing—with rich East Indian rosewood back and sides for massive warmth, airy overtone complexity, and incredible fingerstyle projection. The select hardwood neck joins the body via a traditional dovetail joint and features a vintage-correct Modified V profile, a generous 1 13/16" bone nut, and a 25.4" scale length. An ebony fingerboard adorned with abalone diamonds-and-squares inlays leads up to an elegant slotted headstock with an East Indian rosewood headplate and side-mount nickel tuners with butterbean knobs. Outfitted with classic pre-war appointments—including fine herringbone top inlay, grained ivoroid binding, a zig-zag back strip, and a drop-in long saddle pyramid ebony bridge—this 000-28VS delivers unmistakable vintage Martin soul and dynamic acoustic depth.

About Manufacturer

For well over a century and a half, The Martin Guitar Company has been continuously producing acoustic instruments that are acknowledged to be the finest in the world. The Martin Guitar Company has, through the years, managed to survive with each succeeding generation from C. F. Martin, Sr.?s Stauffer influenced creations of the 1830s to recent developments introduced by C. F. Martin IV. Continuous operation under family management is a feat bordering on the remarkable, reflecting six generations of dedication to the guitarmaker?s craft. In or out of the music industry, C. F. Martin has few rivals for sheer staying power. Throughout its colorful history, the company has adapted successfully to continual changes in product design, distribution systems, and manufacturing methods. In spite of the many changes, C. F. Martin has never veered away from its initial commitment to quality. The concern for producing the finest instruments possible in 1833 is especially evident today at Martin?s expanded facility in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The story behind one of America?s most famous guitars began on January 31, 1796, in Markneukirchen, Germany, with the birth of Christian Frederick Martin, Sr. Born into a long line of cabinet makers, Christian Frederick took up the family craft at the early age of 15, when he left his hometown and traveled to Vienna to apprentice with Johann Stauffer, a renowned guitar maker.
